From Ishtar to EostreOn the 27th March 2013, The Richard Dawkins Foundation for Reason and Science (Official) posted a meme to their Facebook Group stating that the Anglo Saxon Goddess Eostre, and the Christian festival of Easter, had their origins in the Goddess Ishtar Astarte. This meme was met swiftly with fury and derision. Firstly by Christian Groups who were horrified that a Pagan Goddess of death and resurrection was even suggested to be linked with their Saviours

On the 27th March 2013, The Richard Dawkins Foundation for Reason and Science (Official) posted a meme to their Facebook Group stating that the Anglo-Saxon Goddess Eostre, and the Christian festival of Easter, had their origins in the Goddess Ishtar-Astarte. This meme was met swiftly with fury and derision. Firstly by Christian Groups who were horrified that a Pagan Goddess of Ôdeath and resurrectionÕ was even suggested to be linked with their SaviourÕs own Ôdeath and resurrectionÕ festival. Especially one whose name sounds exactly like ÔEasterÕ.

But what happened next would set the stage for a decade to come. In a strange turn of events, the Germanic Neo-Pagan community took up the cause with a score to settle. For the next nine years they would dispute and debunk any and all links between Ishtar and Eostre. They would claim that ÒIshtar-Astarte is a foreign Goddess of Middle Eastern descentÓ and that Òshe wasnÕt venerated anywhere outside of that region!Ó

However, therein lies the problem. A rigid academic investigation into the subject shows that Ishtar-AstarteÕs worship was prevalent not only in the ÒMiddle EastÓ but down the Levantine Corridor, into Egypt and across Northern Africa, through ancient Greece and Rome, across Europe, up to Iberia, and even into the British Isles where she had at least SEVEN altars dedicated to her.

From there, her worship spread to the Germanic sources. We have at least THREE Germanic Academic texts which categorically state that Eostre and Ostara was originally the Goddess Ishtar-Astarte. All of which predate Jacob GrimmÕs ÔspeculationÕ on Eostre by quite some time.

She was the Goddess who endured. From her first Temple in Mesopotamia c.3600 - 3200 BCE to her first Temples in Egypt c.1427 - 1400 BCE. From her first Temple in Cyprus c.1200 BCE to her first Temples in North Africa, Spain, and Portugal during the Phoenician Expansion Period c.900 BCE. From her first Temple in Rome around c.217 BCE to her first Altars in Britannia c.117 to 138 CE, and to the point where her worship finally died out around c.1900 CE in modern Turkey, only a few hundred years ago.

The fact that the endurance of Ishtar-Astarte worship spans almost six millennia, and half the world over, should not be taken lightly. This was a Goddess elevated above all others during much of her history, and who went on to influence a great many other deities. No other Goddess in recorded history was venerated for so long and by so many.

Excellent Structural Privacy Barrier / Zero Assembly Required
Color: Light Beige, Size: 6-Panel
I purchased this 6-panel partition to establish a dedicated recovery zone and create a hard visual perimeter in my room. It serves exactly the function I needed without any unnecessary complexity. ​The structural execution is excellent. It effectively blocks out light and breaks up the room geometry perfectly. Despite being lightweight enough to reposition rapidly, it remains completely stable once anchored in place. ​The best part is the zero-bloat deployment—it was ready to use immediately out of the box with absolutely no complex assembly or external hardware required. Highly recommended.
